Iran Oil Minister speaks and the World bows!
Iran doesn't want to be a small player in the oil production industry they want a say and this morning in Vienna they got what everyone warned about, a chance to bring oil dependent nations to their knees. OPEC, once thought of as a huge controller of many nations economies including ours decided to cut production to bring the price of oil to a level where they can profit and profit big. OPEC is now back on the scene and it is indeed a four letter word this morning in many a household. How will the Russians react? Putin in a statement said he will not cut production but the damage is done and based on this we will see an increase of 4 cents to 11 cents per gallon beginning immediately. Great to see Obama put the Iranians back on the map!

Meanwhile Iran continues to send over terrorists to sabotage the Iraqi production facilities. Saudi Arabia continues to be a non player in all of this, boy have times changed!

Nuke the oil fields in Iran.
See how well they do selling camel poop as their main export.
The more oil that gets destroyed in the ME, the better off WE are.

Most of the OPEC-related cut will come from Saudi Arabia, not Iran. It's comical that conservatives (not sure of your position on them, of course) continue to embrace the Saudis, while constantly bashing the Iranians. The Saudis leader -- via their support of Wahhabism -- are the greatest fomenters of terrorism in the world. Iran isn't even in the same zip code. And no I'm not praising Iran, just highlighting the real threat in the Middle East.

Believe it or not, the wife and I were discussing the Saudi's, and Wahhabism just this morning. Spurred by a radio report on oil prices.
I don't think they are a threat. Unless you live or travel there. The last few years have also killed their economy. They are shrinking.......

Tommy there is no need whatsoever to pull the word "Nuke", don't expect our next President to position all of us as bad as the current one. The forty fifth President of these United States will I think unleash the power of our energy potential we have. We just have to give the guy a chance to try to correct all of the bogus mistakes of the last twenty five plus years. Both sides have had blunders to get us here at this point. The country has demanded a reset that more than anything wants solutions other than war. Folks like you and I need to stock the fridge with cold beer and high end steak that we can enjoy with the new success the next administration will have. Remember he is in it to win, and has promised we might get tired of winning all the time.

Opec does not like the fact we found another huge oil reserve in TX. We are building our first new gas refinery in what thirty plus years? Our costs to drill have plummeted in the past two years, the keystone XL will now be built as well as the DAPL finished early next year. This all spells angst in opec
